Pakistan trudge to 74 at lunch in first Test
HARARE: Pakistan top order vows continued as they crawled to 74-3 at lunch on the first morning of the first Test against Zimbabwe at Harare Sports Club.

Zimbabwe won the toss and opted to field first. The decision was justified as both the Pakistan openers, Hafeez and Khurram Manzoor were back in the pavilion with just 21 on the board.

A lot was expected of Younis Khan as he is the most experienced and senior most batsmen of the present line up.

How ever he soon followed the openers putting Pakistan in a difficult situation with three wickets down for just 27 runs.

But then in came the in form skipper Misbah ul Haq and alongwith Azhar Ali took Pakistan to lunch without any further loss adding 47 runs in the process.
